Learning Commons Guide

Use Learning Commons to find standards, granular learning components, prerequisites, progressions, and state crosswalks, then prepare an attributable Sprout learning brief.

How it works

  1. 1Resolve the targetFind one public standard or Learning Component from a pinned release or authorized API.
  2. 2Check the path and rightsRead useful prerequisites or crosswalks and preserve record-level license and attribution.
  3. 3Prepare the Sprout briefReturn parent and creator views without sending child data or changing child state.

Instructions

  1. Use the Learning Commons Knowledge Graph as one curriculum source for this request. Learner: {{input.learner}}. Goal: {{input.goal}}. Jurisdiction: {{input.jurisdiction}}. Use the official API, MCP, or a pinned public JSONL release; never scrape the website. Select the narrowest useful standard or Learning Component, then retrieve prerequisites, immediate next steps, or crosswalks only when they clarify the recommendation. Preserve every source identifier, exact release or retrieval date, record-level license, and attributionStatement. Scope this skill to public standards, Learning Components, progressions, and crosswalks. Do not copy gated curriculum, lessons, activities, or assessments without separate rights. Return Parent view and Creator brief. Parent view explains the teachable skill in ordinary language. Creator brief includes the source record, jurisdiction, grade, prerequisite, next step, rights card, and suggested Sprout activity shape. Add a visible note thanking Learning Commons and the upstream organizations credited by the record, with links to https://learningcommons.org and https://github.com/learning-commons-org/knowledge-graph. Do not imply endorsement. Do not send child names, responses, family context, or identifiers to Learning Commons Evaluators. Keep curriculum alignment separate from child evidence, mastery, rewards, and delivery. If the record license, attribution, coverage, or access tier is unclear, return needs_setup and a source link rather than adapting content.
